The Gentleman’s Daughter: Womens Lives in Georgian England by Amanda Vickery
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Part of my ongoing research in preparation for my graduate thesis.
This is the second book by Vickery I have read during my research. Sadly, both books did not contain anything that could help me with my research, but that does not mean the books were not good.
Just like the last one, this one contained a wealth of information that was presented in a very interesting and personal way. I was invested in what the author had to share, and it was engaging.
Regardless of the fact that I can’t use specific details the author presents in her book, I am able to use the book as a whole to prove a part of my point/bigger argument during the future composition of my thesis.
Overall, I truly enjoy the author’s writing style and skill of bringing history to life. I would recommend it to anyone, who has an interest in women’s lives during the Georgian era.
